Hi,
How would that even work? Force a pop up into web traffic? What if the end
users is using an app on a phone?
Most, if not all, mobile devices connected to cellular already have that
option. On
my iphone it's under settings->notifications->government alerts. There are three
separate options: Amber alerts, Emergency alerts, and Public Safety alerts.
I wonder if that is wired in with the earthquake alerts i think you can
get these days.
Personally, I have all three turned off after receiving nonsens alerts. Amber
alerts
for children abducted in Los Angeles, only 600km (~450 miles) from the Bay Area,
where I live, for example. Or a "public safety" alert telling me that there are
too many people in the local Trader Joe's, 2 miles from my home.
Aliens always invade New York, so I'm safe up here :)
I beg your pardon, they have a bizarre fascination with Golden Gate
Bridge. It's the oversized monkeys that like New York.
